Fake Casio watch turned into a DIY, Lego desk clock
I got what appears to be a fake Casio B640 off eBay. So I decided to have some fun with it. I took out the movement? Module? I took out the insides, and found some small magnification boxes on Amazon that it fits inside almost perfectly. Last night I rummaged around in the bins of old Lego pieces my son never uses anymore, and cobbled together a little stand for it.
It actually turned out way better than I expected. It's propped up at the perfect angle now, and is very legible thanks to the magnifier. It looks like a little CRT computer monitor. The magnification cube friction fits right into the stand like it was designed for it. I think it turned out pretty cool looking, and works great as a little desk clock.
And the watch case and strap was turned into another fun project. The Casio CYP...
I just got back into watches in 2021, after not wearing a watch for years. Glad to be here.
Too cool! Love it.
The Casio CYP needs to be a thing.
That's really cool, where did you get the box from, I'd love one for my desk and have a watch that could be turned into something similar.

The boxes can be found on Amazon or eBay. This is the link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07KXG58PX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I just came across them when trying to come up with ideas. If you make something post it here, I'd like to see it!
